N presenting  this  Catalogue  to  the  trade , we  desire  to  state  that  we  are  constantly 
adding  new  designs  and  ornaments , which  will  appear  in  catalogue  form  from 
time  to  time , and  that  we  will  execute  any  useful  design  wanted  without 
charge  for  the  mould.

.•  / The  high  degree  of  beauty  and  sumptuous  effects  obtainable  with  Compo.  ornamentation 

are  well  known  to  architects  and  builders  ; to  those  not  familiar  with  its  qualities  we  can 
unreservedly  commend  it  for  trial.  In  particular , we  desire  to  call  the  attention  of  architects 
to  our  Compo.  After  years  of  study  and  expensive  experiment , we  are  able  to  produce  a com- 
position which  we  can  warrant  not  to  crack  or  shrink.  In  the  successful  achievement  of  these 
essential  features  we  are  now  able  to  supply  a long-felt  deficiency  in  decorative  work. 


: : Our  ornaments  are  sufficiently  pliable  to  be  capable  of  usage  in  any  variety  of  form  and 

effect  desired , and  can  be  made  in  any  length. 


It  will  afford  us  pleasure  to  give  estimates  at  all  times.

UGGeSTIONS  FOR  APPLYING 


♦ ♦ ♦ 


READ  THE  HINTS  BELOW  CAREFULLY.  DISASTROUS 
RESULTS  OFTEN  FOLLOW  CARELESSNESS  IN  DE- 
TAILS, AND  MATERIAL  IS  OFTEN  BLAMED  WHERE 
THE  WORKMANSHIP  IS  AT  FAULT  : : : : :

A 


RN A ME  N TS  intended  for  woodwork  should  invar icibly  be  applied  to  the  wood  in 
its  raw.  state;  the  latter  should  be  sized  with  thin , weak  glue.  The  ornament 
Cgggy  should  be  slightly  warmed  and  softened  by  holding  it  over  steam  ( care  being  taken 
not  to  get  it  too  soft),  then  glued  and  evenly  pressed  dozen;  it  should  never  be  stretched;  on 
the  contrary , it  should  be  compressed  in  the  proportion  of  about  one-quarter  inch  to  the  foot , in 
order  to  avoid  the  otherwise  inevitable  shrinkage ; the  compression  should  not  be  violent  and 
should  not  disturb  the  lines  of  the  ornament.  In  order  to  produce  perfect  joints , the  ends  should 
be  dipped  in  hot  water  before  applying.  Heavier  ornaments  require  additional  security  in 
the  form  of  fine  wire  nails. 


: For  exterior  work , white  lead  should  be  used  instead  of  glue,  the  ornaments  fastened  with 
nails  and  immediately  painted.  The  same  particulars  apply  to  plaster  work. 

Write  for  further  information.
